Boy am I glad I don't have facebook
taken from "The Mini Forum" Quote "i posted a comment on these peoples wall as they had remarks about slashing bmw minis tyres etc just got a comment back saying ''this is a group dedicated to the great british mini we want to spit on the bmw version'' i still cant believe theres people out there like that." End Quote and it's nice to see a mature response from the classic guys on there Andy ps does anybody have facebook to check it out, as I don't and won't have it

This, unfortunately, is nothing new.
![]() There are quite a few classic owners who despise the MINI. This does not reflect the opinion of all classic owners, but it's quite clear that those who share this opinion will not be changing their minds any time soon.

I like this comment...
"but its still a car, and as our Minis are our pride and joy, their BINIs are there pride and joy, so you have to respect that!" and "Whilst I don't like the MINI as the mini's replacement. it is a good, well engineered car. and i'm sure that some of our suppliers for parts wouldn't be in business without the MINI trade. So to the creators of this group. GROW UP, enjoy your mini, and respect other peoples cars." and then in response to this one...its not a mini its a bmw "shut up" Them not liking it is no issue, at least they aren't being rude about it Lots of people on the page are telling the person - whoever it may be, to grow up, get a life...and some saying they are ashamed to be part of the mini community after seeing the group!

Hoot, this is another example of the hatered thats being ignored, why sneak around like a thief in the night, damaging cars, why not confront the owners. I'm open to their comments, they may not like my response ! I wonder if some of the people commenting on the scrap yard thread can shed some light on this !

Again, I do not see how this helps the animosity between this small group of individuals and MINI owners.

If I caught a daft **** vandalising my car because it was a new mini I would totally destroy the idiot, i am not a violent guy as a rule but why there has to be this level of hatered against this car I will never get it.
